Please critique Brisket turn in box. - Page 3

Rhapsody · 03-07-2009, 10:09 PM

I think it looks really good. I would probably give it a 9 in a competition. I love the looks of the burnt ends, so I assume thats what the outside of the slices look like. In person, I would obviously be able to see that better. I don't know about other judges, but I don't look at garnish AT ALL. If the meat looks good, it looks good. That being said, both the meat and garnish look very good. How long did that take?

Where do you find a cow with that many perfect slices of beef?

Probably a Steer from Canada....

Thank you again.

FYI.. The slang word crap comes from T. Crapper, the man who invented the modern toilet.

You know anything can happen though.

You'd get a 9 from this judge. As far as those 7's and 6's, it's possible that your turn-in box may have been shaken a bit before it got to the judges. Either that or they may have been new judges.

Now if you told me I HAD to find something wrong with this presentation, the burnt ends are turned different ways. Not enough for me to give it less than a 9 though.

Good job!!

U2CANQUE · 03-08-2009, 06:29 AM

the only problem I see with that box is that I didnt do it....great job gal, now I will stop poking fun at the practice runs on facebook....as far as getting lower scores on a turn in, you just cant sweat the small stuff.....if that was turned in at 10 contests it would end up averaging higher....taste at one contest, all 9's with one 8, and a 3....just laugh at it....and keep the smoke rollin....

Porky · 03-08-2009, 07:28 AM

Nicely spaced, garnish is uniform, meat is clean of meat particles and moist looking, great looking box--9.

Darryld · 03-08-2009, 10:53 AM

It's 9's across the board

thillin · 03-08-2009, 01:50 PM

looks really good to me!

Mike - CSBBBQ · 03-08-2009, 03:47 PM

If it tasted like it looks, I'm thinking 180

SaucyWench · 03-08-2009, 04:00 PM

I get myself in trouble here by answering these kinds of questions, but here I go....

It may just be from looking at a single picture on a computer, but something about it doesn't say 9 to me. More crust on top maybe? Something about the connective tissues? The shininess looks nice, but an experienced judge knows that shiny can/is added at the end and may not help taste. The smoke ring looks lovely, but we are instructed every time not to pay attention to smoke rings. Without seeing it in person, I can't define what it is that is making me say I'd go 7 or 8 instead of 9. It isn't the garnish, as Rhapsody says, I really don't look at that. The layout is fine.

6 definitely seems low here, but it would be way helpful to judges if KCBS would define average-is it average restaurant? Is it average backyard? Okay, so it's average competition Q, what the @#% is that?

The Virginian · 03-08-2009, 06:46 PM

Put the meat all the way up to the front of the box. The greenery in the very front is a distraction. Other than that, looks sweet.
